Roy Williams on sarcasm, 'dropped' balls

Near the end of training camp, Williams toyed with the media about getting the cold shoulder from quarterback Jay Cutler and suddenly, he was lobbying for more balls.

Williams whispered about getting in better football shape. Soon after, he was made out to be the next Albert Haynesworth.

``My fault, media,’’ Williams said. ``I’m a sarcastic guy. I like to smile a lot. So I won’t do that anymore.’’

Dropped passes, however, are no laughing matter. Every time Williams has one, it is sure to be magnified. He had a bobble in Monday night’s exhibition loss to the Giants that was overturned after a review. Williams was targeted three times in the game without a catch.

Williams was asked to assess his ``drops’’ Monday night.

``I had a drop? I didn’t have a drop,’’ Williams said. ``If you want to count it, you can. I think the DB made a great play to knock it out as soon as it got into my hands, so I didn’t drop the ball.’’

Williams was pressed on another ball he couldn’t reach against the Giants.

``It went through my hands? The slant? Yeah, I’ve got to catch the ball, man,’’ Williams said. ``I’ll catch it next time, Coach.’’

Williams seemed to find a comfort zone with Cutler near the end of training camp even if that didn’t translate into success Monday night. They have two more exhibitions to work out the kinks, although neither is expected to play much against Cleveland next Thursday.

``It’s coming along good,’’ Williams said of his timing with Cutler. ``I think everybody just wants us to click right now. It’s going to take a little time. We’re progressing day by day, trying to get to Sept. 11.
